Dec 23/16 – Merry Christmas
I wish to all of you very Merry Christmas and all the best in 2017.
Many happy take offs and safe landings and no broken propellers at all.
Have a great holiday and I will see you next year.

Dec 22/16 – Get your license!
An interesting read. $4000 fine, 2 days in jail, and 2 years probation.
Nov 26/16 – Attention Miniplane owners
Those who have purchased Miniplane should consider following improvement:
The J-bar is secured to the front of the Miniplane harness with a screw that is threaded into the J-bar. In the last course this screw fell out in flight and pilot slipped to one side which made the aircraft bit unbalanced and quite scary for the pilot.
I have decided to rivet this which is much more secure attachment. I suggest you do the same.

It was no wind and then wind picked up soo quickly that we have missed our short window and no one got any flights.
Nov 16/16 pm – Danny and Jason – PPG course day 4
Great flying this evening. Lots of flights by all. Jason busted prop on failed take off and Danny was hit by rogue gust front that made him land quite close to the road and power lines. Scary.
Nov 16/16 am – Danny and Jason – PPG course day 4
Misty morning, overcast. Waited till wind picked up and the guys did 2 flights each. One of my engines started to act up – blown out base cylinder head gasket because one of the head bolts loosened up.
